Academia, Old Tom Morris and a London Letdown

[Noel Mugavin]

That was it for my time in Oxford; bid farewell to the young bloke, grabbed the bag from the hotel, then to Oxford Bus Station for the ride back to Heathrow

Away I go

Doorway of Nuffield College




Up into the carpark and to the Heathrow Pods




Pod takes you to Carpark 2, which is also the location of the Thistle Hotel.


No doubt the ugliest hotel I've ever stayed in

Did you specifically book the Car Park View room? Do they charge extra for the Car Park View?

It's well known in these parts of being an ugly and not so great hotel comfort wise but it does have a wonderful balcony with great views of runway 27R /09L while.having a beer! Pods are useful also. So plus and minus....lovely and interesting photos around Oxford Uni etc. Brings back many memories to me.
